1 SAN JOSE STATE UNIVERSITY M.S. PROGRAM INDUSTRIAL/ORGANIZATIONAL (I/O) PSYCHOLOGY PROGRAM OVERVIEW The mission of the Master of Science (M.S.) program in Industrial/Organizational (I/O) Psychology at San Jose State is to provide students an intensive grounding in theory, research, and application in the field of I/O Psychology. As the purpose of I/O Psychology is to apply psychological theory, research, and methodologies to organizational settings, the M.S. I/O program at San Jose State has three primary goals for its students: To acquire knowledge in key content areas in I/O psychology To develop skills in research methodology and data analysis To apply the knowledge and skills acquired in their coursework to organizational situations The I/O program strives to instill the values of the scientist-practitioner model: to have students understand and appreciate theory and research as they apply their knowledge and skills to meet the needs and challenges of organizations. As such, our ideal graduate is broadly educated and critically minded a good thinker and problem solver who has the desire and ability to ethically apply theory and methods to real-world settings. The I/O program is intended to prepare graduates for professional practice or academic study in areas such as: Work engagement and motivation Organizational development Job satisfaction and productivity Diversity and culture Employee selection and placement, compensation, and performance evaluation Training and development Job analysis, competency modeling, and performance management Research design, data collection, and statistical analysis Survey development and administration The location of San Jose State in the heart of Silicon Valley affords many opportunities for the practice of I/O psychology. Organizations in which recent graduates of the I/O program have found full-time employment include the following: Apple Gap, Inc. LSI Corporation Barracuda Networks Google Oracle Charles Schwab Hewlett Packard (HP) Orchard Supply Hardware Cisco Systems Intuit SAP Electronic Arts (EA) Lam Research Tesla Motors Facebook LinkedIn VISA, Inc. Detailed information about the I/O program (including application materials) may be found at Inquires about the program are welcome and may be directed to M.S. I/O Psychology Program San José State University Department of Psychology One Washington Square San Jose, CA U.S.A. P: F:

2 PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS Coursework The I/O program requires 30 units of graduate-level work, consisting of both required and elective courses. The required courses are designed to give students a comprehensive coverage of critical issues and topics in I/O psychology, whereas the electives provide the opportunity to explore one's areas of interest. The classes are designed to provide an effective balance of theory, methodology, and application, often involving guest speakers and class-wide projects with local organizations. The coursework addresses the majority of competencies set forth by the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology (SIOP) ( Listed below is the recommended two-year sequence of courses: First year: Fall: Psyc 270 (Seminar in Industrial/Organizational Psychology) Psyc 240 (Applied Psychometrics) Elective course Spring: Psyc 271 (Seminar in Personnel Psychology) Stat 235 (Multivariate Analysis) Elective course Second year: Fall: Psyc 249 (Supervised Field Work in I/O Psychology (Internship)) Elective course Spring: Psyc 299 (Master's Thesis) Examples of I/O elective courses include Psyc 272 (Training and Development), Psyc 276 (Groups at Work), and Psyc 293 (Organizational Development). Students may also take elective courses in other SJSU departments (i.e., Business Administration, Communication Studies, Education), identified with the assistance of program faculty. Supervised Field Work (Internship) (Psyc 249) Students are required to complete an internship in a supervised field setting, typically working for 6-12 months on a part-time or full-time basis. The goal of the internship is to have students apply the knowledge and skills learned in their formal coursework to real world situations. Furthermore, internships may result in the student being offered a full-time permanent position. Students in the I/O program have obtained internships in many well known corporations in Silicon Valley; listed below is a partial list of organizations that have recently sponsored internships: Adobe National Semiconductor California Public Utilities Commission Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) County of Santa Clara Sun Microsystems ebay Valley Transit Authority (VTA) General Electric (GE) Varian Medical Systems NASA Ames Research Center VMWare Projects completed by recent interns include: Studying telecommuting and telecommuters to determine appropriate organizational policy Developing instruments to evaluate training outcomes for an international training consulting firm Analyzing and reporting a major insurance company's employee opinion survey Analyzing a large employee data-base to investigate career progression patterns of male and female managers in a Fortune 500 company Developing and administering a wellness program to city employees Writing an employee handbook for the San Francisco Opera Company

3 Master s Thesis (Psyc 299) As a culminating experience, each student must complete a master's thesis, which is an original empirical research project conducted with the assistance of a three-person faculty committee. Titles of recent completed theses include: Perceived organizational support and counterproductive work behavior: How personality moderates the relationship Future work selves and work-related outcomes: The role of perceived supervisor support The effects of psychological contract breach on job outcomes Effects of middle management support for improvement on perceived organizational performance capabilities An examination of the theory of planned behavior on faking an overt integrity test Affectivity and impulsivity as predictors of workplace deviance Making hiring decisions using Facebook: How job applicants are evaluated The role of perceived organizational support and career opportunities as moderators of the relationship between work engagement and job satisfaction Fostering affective commitment and work engagement through mentoring The effects of mere exposure on responses to foreign-accented speech Time Commitment to the Program Because students are expected to complete the program in two years, we have found this to be difficult for students who are working full-time, especially if they have inflexible work schedules. Although most courses are taught in the late afternoon/early evenings, this is not always the case. Many students do work part-time, although their schedules must be able to accommodate the coursework, internship, and thesis requirements. Students failing to make satisfactory progress towards completion of program requirements may be subject to probation or dismissal. UNDERGRADUATE PREPARATION FOR ADMISSION The Psychology Department requires applicants for the I/O Program to have completed at least 30 semester units of coursework in Psychology-related classes. Applicants for the I/O program are expected to have completed many of the following undergraduate courses: industrial/organizational psychology psychological research methods and/or experimental psychology psychological testing and measurement elementary and intermediate statistics In addition, completion of courses from the following list of topics is recommended: social psychology personality psychology clinical and/or health psychology developmental psychology organizational behavior human resource management computer applications in psychology We recognize that many universities do not offer extensive course offerings in I/O psychology; students facing that situation are encouraged to take related courses in their business school or other social science departments. Also note that factors such as relevant research, volunteer, or professional experience are taken into consideration in the admissions process, and an applicant s strengths in some areas may offset weaknesses in others.

4 APPLICATION INFORMATION To be eligible for consideration for the I/O Program, the candidate must: 1. Have completed either a baccalaureate degree (BA/BS) in psychology or any baccalaureate degree and 30 semester (45 quarter) units in psychology. 2. Have a minimum grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 (on a 4-point scale) in psychology coursework and in the last 60 semester (90 quarter) units of undergraduate coursework. 3. Meet all University Graduate Studies admissions requirements ( 4. Submit an application to the I/O program (information about the application packet can be found at 5. Submit an application to the SJSU Graduate Admissions and Program Evaluations (GAPE) Office ( and Please note that the deadline for submitting materials to the Psychology Department has historically been February 1st, with applications only accepted for the Fall semester (we do not offer mid-year (Spring) admissions). Applicants are responsible for keeping informed of application deadlines and confirming that their submitted applications to the I/O program and the university are complete. ADMISSION INFORMATION The I/O Program traditionally accepts students each year; in the past, students have been admitted from a number of universities throughout the country and abroad, representing a wide variety of educational and cultural backgrounds. For example, during the period of , a partial list of students entering the I/O program had received their undergraduate degrees at the following universities: Bosphorus University (Turkey) Lewis and Clark College UC Riverside College of Charleston Lillehammer University (Norway) UC Santa Barbara Colorado State University Michigan Tech University UC Santa Cruz CSU Bakersfield CSU Sacramento Portland State University San Diego State University University of Central Florida University of Cincinnati CSU San Luis Obispo San Jose State University University of Connecticut CSU Stanislaus Santa Clara University University of Haifa (Israel) Drew University Dominican University Sonoma State University Tehran University (Iran) University of Lisbon University of Malaga (Spain) Emory Riddle University UC Berkeley University of Missouri Florida Gulf Coast University Fresno State University UC Davis UC Irvine University of North Texas University of Toledo Humboldt State University UCLA Whittier College Unfortunately, due to the limited number of spaces available, as well as the demands of the program, not all students meeting minimum requirements can be selected. In recent years, the program has received applications for positions.

5 I/O Program at San Jose State Frequently asked questions (FAQ) How many people apply to the I/O program? How many are admitted? In the last few years, we have received applications for positions. As I/O psychology has become an increasingly popular area of psychology, we have seen yearly increases in the number of applications for the program. What is the profile of the typical admitted student? In terms of a profile of students who enter the program, a wide range of educational backgrounds and geographic locations are represented, evenly distributed across large and small public and private colleges, with 25-35% of our students graduating from colleges outside of California. The majority of students have been out of college for one or more years. The average college grade point average (GPA) for admitted students is , with average GRE scores at the 60 th percentile. The typical student has taken an undergraduate course in I/O psychology or organizational behavior/human resources, two statistics courses, two research methodology courses, and courses in a variety of psychology subdisciplines (i.e., personality, social, clinical, developmental, health). Outside of the classroom, applicants to the I/O program have often served as a research assistant (RA), teaching assistant (TA), tutor, peer mentor, or officer in a university club or group. Students have been employed in a wide range of jobs, perhaps related to I/O or HR but often not (i.e., retail salesperson, food server, nanny, administrative assistant, camp counselor, sports instructor or coach). Do I have to have an undergraduate degree in Psychology to apply to the program? Yes, the Psychology Department requires students applying to their graduate programs to either have an undergraduate degree in psychology or to have completed 30 semester units (45 quarter units) in psychology courses. Applicants must also have a minimum GPA of 3.0 in psychology coursework and in the last 60 semester (90 quarter) units of undergraduate coursework. The 30-unit psychology requirement allows the I/O program to move at a faster pace because students enter the program with a similar fundamental grounding in psychology. There is a slight amount of flexibility in these requirements, such that the SJSU Psychology Department may consider a small number of courses taken in other departments to be equivalent to psychology courses. How do applicants who do not have an undergraduate degree in Psychology meet the 30 semesterunit psychology course requirement? The 30-unit requirement may be met by taking lower-division or upper-division courses at two-year (community) colleges or four-year universities; please refer to the Undergraduate Preparation for Admission section of the Program Brochure for a list of recommended courses. These courses may either be in-person or online courses; however, each course must result in a letter grade that appears on an official transcript to be submitted as part of the application to the I/O program. Is the program full-time? Is there a part-time or online alternative? The program is full-time, with students expected to complete their coursework and be working toward completion of their thesis by the end of their second year; students who do not maintain satisfactory progress are subject to probation or dismissal. We do not offer a part-time program because the required and elective courses are only offered once a year in a specific sequence. It is not an online program because we feel graduate education is based on shared knowledge and experiences resulting from formal and informal collaboration among students and faculty; this collaboration is best achieved through face-toface interaction.

6 Is preference given to applicants who have already graduated from college? Given this is an applied program in which students often end up working in the public or private sector, a certain amount of preference is given to applicants who have already graduated from college. However, the goal of I/O program is not to provide vocational training in which one obtains a degree in order to further one's individual career; students in the program are expected to invest their time and energy in enriching the experience of their fellow students. Must I already have experience in I/O psychology before applying to the program? No - the I/O program does not require applicants to have already been employed in I/O-related positions - however, having the opportunity to perform I/O or HR-related activities (i.e., selection, training, team building, motivation, organizational change) as part of one s job is useful in that it helps applicants decide whether they want to invest the time and resources needed to go to grad school in I/O psychology. How much importance or emphasis is placed on GRE scores in the admissions process? The I/O program does not have any type of minimum or cutoff GRE scores. GRE scores are primarily used to supplement and corroborate other information in the application, such as grades in writing or statistics courses. GRE scores that are particularly low or high (loosely defined as the bottom or top 15th percentile) may be given a certain amount of emphasis in the admissions process. How important are applicant s research interests in the admissions process? Admission to the I/O program is not based on the fit between applicants and faculty members research interests - it is based on the fit between an applicant s interests and goals within the field of I/O psychology and the I/O program s emphasis and requirements. Individual faculty members do not admit students in order to have them work on their research projects or in their research labs. How can I find information about faculty members research interests? You can learn about faculty members research interests by visiting Staff/. It is important to understand that the gaining of research experience while in grad school is a fundamental difference between master s versus doctoral education. Students in the I/O program are welcome and encouraged to become involved in faculty members research programs; however, given the short amount of time the program has to prepare students for their futures, a master s program such as ours places a somewhat greater emphasis on curriculum and practical application (i.e., internship). Consequently, in completing their thesis requirement, students in the I/O program often develop their thesis topics from their coursework and internship experiences. Does the I/O program interview its applicants? No, for two primary reasons. First, we believe the application materials provide a sufficient amount of relevant information to make admissions decisions. This does assume the applicant has carefully read and followed the application instructions, particularly for the personal statement. Second, as interviews are often conducted and evaluated in a subjective, unstructured, and inconsistent manner, we see little reason to require applicants to take part in something that may be unreliable and invalid. The I/O psychologist s response to this concern might be, conduct structured interviews in which all applicants are asked the same question, to which we reply, Why not ask applicants to provide the information addressed by these questions in their applications? Can the application to the program be submitted electronically? No - as of this date, San Jose State does not have the ability to have applications submitted electronically via or online services such as Interfolio. Although we hope this will change, applicants are currently required to gather their application materials and mail as many of them together in one envelope to the Psychology Department.

7 Are funding or tuition waivers available? No - another difference between master s and doctoral training in that master s institutions typically can t offer fellowships, tuition waivers or half-time TA/RAships as financial aid. The Psychology Department does have a few reader/stat lab positions, but they are only a few hours a week and provide a very small amount of financial assistance. Historically, most students finance their education through personal resources, loans, and work outside of the university. Please keep in mind that full-time employment is not encouraged during the first year as it makes completion of the required coursework very challenging. The current tuition and fees may be found at the Bursar website ( - select the Fees and Due Dates tab at the top of the page under this tab, select Tuition and Other Fees. There are also a number of scholarships offered through the Psychology Department, the College of Social Sciences, and the university that we encourage grad students to apply for during their first year. Are students paired up with or assigned an advisor/mentor? Students in the I/O program are not formally assigned an advisor or mentor we believe students should be free to work and talk with any or all of the faculty. Furthermore, students not only vary widely in their goals and interests as well as their styles and preferences, but these typically shift and change while the student is in the program. As a result, we feel students are better able to determine which faculty they are more aligned with after they start the program than before. Are the classes usually taught during the day or in the evenings? Because first and second-year students in the I/O program are typically working during the day for financial and/or professional reasons, the I/O classes are taught in the late afternoon and evening. Also, the two required I/O courses are typically taught back-to-back on two days of the week, and the elective I/O course is almost always taught one day a week, thereby limiting the number of days the student must come to campus. It is possible that elective classes taken in other departments may be taught at other times of the day and days of the week. Are second-year internships paid internships? Virtually all internships are paid positions, and are obtained using a variety of sources: local organizations, I/O program faculty and alumni, the SJSU Career Center, and the student s personal network. The I/O program is flexible in what constitutes an acceptable internship the internship requirement can be filled in a variety of positions within an organization: paid or unpaid, full-time or part-time, short-term or longterm, employee or contractor. We are less concerned about the number of hours worked per week or the starting/ending dates than we are about the nature of the internship. The main requirement that must be met for a position to meet the internship requirement is that part of the position must be project-based (as opposed to day-to-day administrative responsibilities) that requires knowledges, skills, and abilities relevant to I/O psychology. In other words, the internship must provide the opportunity to become involved in projects that have a defined beginning, middle, and end. Why does the I/O program require a master s thesis? A thesis is an original empirical research project, conducted with the assistance of a three-person committee, that resembles articles found in academic journals consisting of four sections (Introduction, Method, Results, Discussion). The I/O program at SJSU requires a master s thesis for several reasons. First, the thesis is a public demonstration of a student s willingness and ability to take primary responsibility for all aspects of a research project, thereby demonstrating project management skills. Second, as organizations place increasing emphasis on data-based decision making, the thesis enhances the student s ability to analyze and interpret data. Third, unlike a comprehensive exam, the thesis provides the student the opportunity to work collaboratively with faculty over an extended period of time to refine their research and communication skills. Lastly, the reality is that not every student who begins the thesis process completes it successfully. Therefore, unlike other types of cumulating experiences, the thesis is not a fait accompli but is instead an achieved accomplishment.

8 What percentage of students obtain employment after graduation from the program? Although we do not formally track our students after they graduate, we do keep in touch with them both informally and professionally. It is our belief that roughly 90% of program graduates are employed in permanent part-time or full-time positions related to I/O psychology within one year of receiving their degrees. What percentage of students enter PhD programs after graduation from the program? A small percentage (3-5%) of students in the I/O program choose to go on to doctoral training. For applicants who are considering a PhD, it is important to understand that many PhD programs do not give two years credit to students who enter their program with a master s degree. In other words, a graduate of our program may be treated as a first-year student in their doctoral program, which means they may need to take courses similar to those taken while in the program at SJSU as well as conduct a second master s thesis. Consequently, we advise applicants considering doctoral training to apply to both masters and doctoral programs at the same time and determine each doctoral program s policies regarding students who enter with a master s degree. Does the I/O program hold an open house? No because 80-90% of the applications we receive are from people who do not live in Northern California, we don t want these applicants to feel they are at a disadvantage if they are unable to attend an open house at San Jose State. Instead, we are always happy to meet or talk with applicants at a day and time convenient to them; the best way to reach the I/O program to set up an appointment is at Can I speak with current students or graduates of the program? In order to protect their privacy, we do not post or distribute the names and contact information of past, current, or prospective students in the I/O program. Once an applicant is offered a position in the program, we provide their names and contact information to students who are or have been in the I/O program, who independently contact the applicant to share their experiences and answer questions.
